The Campaign For DA

5.16.2008

A 16-year-old girl posted a cry for help on YouTube two weeks ago. She was allegedly drugged and raped by a 23-year-old man. In the video, she does not name the rapist, but instead focuses on her disappointment that the Florida state attorney's office refused to prosecute the case . . . . Source.
One thing about being a prosecutor is that there will always be people unhappy with the decisions you make. But, man, the Internet sure changes the playing field.

So a 23 year old man--what normal 23 year old is even interested in a teenager?--has relations with a teen and she is drugged and a prosecutor does nothing? A teen can't give legal consent. This is very Florida, simple minded. If the man were black with a white teen, this would have been prosecuted in Florida. Pretty sad if "more info" is needed when the victim is a minor and the perpetrator an adult.
